The final results of Chris' restoration of a Cinelli Super Corsa Leggerissimo. The maiden voyage will be this weekend, check back for a report.

The Leggerissimo was a special model sold by the Brugelmann shop in Frankfurt, Germany. Read more here and see the listing in their catalog. Here is a photo of my own 1972 Cinelli SC Leggerissimo, still completely original:

I invite you to contribute by sending in photographs of your Cinelli bike, illustrations, personal stories, and articles about Cinelli bikes and components.

Tom writes in, "Picked this up off a mate who works as a removalist, he was pretty much given the bike and I bought it off him. Came with steel 650b rims laced to a rear record hub and front first gen dura ace, got rid of them pretty quickly and replaced with 32/40 record(pre stamped) laced to gold fiamme rims.

Just waiting on the new rear sprocket, some rubber and a replacement head tube badge.
